When I start my netscape prowser on linux box It is unable to open the localhost whose domainname is loaclhost.localdomain
I am able to http:// to my win machine running PWS but not telnet http:// or ftp to linux box
How do I do this..
probably you have not installed any of these daemons or you have not started them. telnet and ftp are usually run using inetd ( man inetd ) so if these daemons are installed check the file /etc/inetd.conf for if the lines containing ftp and telnet are not commented.
Do I need to install samba.
no you don't need to install samba for http, telnet and ftp.
